In a menacing declaration, Escobar painted a picture of brutality, promising to leave Rey battered and broken to the point where even his own family would plead for mercy.
“I told you, Rey. Don’t come back… I gave you a clean, a decent way out. [But] you had to come back. You couldn’t bear the thought of seeing me become what I’m destined to become: the Emperor of Lucha Libre. And now you’re here, so I got to hurt you. I’m going to hurt you real bad. Your family is going to beg for mercy, but none will be given,”
Santos Escobar’s words echoed with chilling finality.
As the tension escalates and emotions run high, the impending clash between Escobar and Mysterio promises to be nothing short of explosive.
